Fabric OS Command Reference
53-1001764-01
Reinitiates authentication on selected ports after changing the DH-CHAP group,
hash type, and shared secret between a pair of switches. This command does not
work on Private, Loop, NPIV and FICON devices. The command can reinitiate
authentication only if the device was previously authenticated. This command
may bring down the E_Ports if the DH-CHAP shared secrets are not installed
correctly. This command is not supported on encrypted ports ports. Valid options
include the following:
slot
Specify the slot number, if applicable, followed by a slash (/).
port
Specify the port number. On enterprise-class platforms, use the slot/port format for
specifying the port number.
allE
Specify all E_Ports in the switch.
